Discoloring on cake after fruiting

After cutting the first fruits and dunking some of this greyish stuff appeared. Should I take it out of my FC?
Top of the same cake, I'm pretty sure this is just bruising though since i dropped it a week ago and it's clearly blue

Also another cake has a large black spot on it. I don't think it's grown much if any but I wanna make sure this isn't a problem

And an overhead view just kuz. first cake is top left, second cake top right.

So basically are these still good or should I remove them from the others?

I've read on here that black is very unhealthy to be breathing in.

Um, that black shit does not look good dude. Get some alcohol on that asap. and get it out of there. Your grow room is probably contaminated now.

I think he meant get some peroxide on it. A solution of peroxide and water can be used to control some molds like cobweb mold. Not an expert, but I believe alcohol kills fungus, and peroxide kills mold. But i do agree, the black stuff is not good. Get rid of it!

Try rinsing it off. A lot of that looks like spores and bruising but not sure about all of it.

I cut off the black, moved it to a separate FC, and it seems to be growing decent now so hopefully it'll be fine for the next flush

Has that cake already fruited with the black spot? Been near other cakes that have fruited?
If so it is probably just spores. The bluing is bruising. When picking try and get all of the mushroom off of the cake. Twisting can help.

Yea I started thinking about it and it was under a somewhat large cap (actually the one in my picture lol)and I let it mature so that's probably what it was. But I isolated the blue and black cake, let them fruit then put them back in the main FC for the next flush and so far everythings going great.
About the harvesting though, should I pull/twist them off or cut them? Right now i'm just using a clean box cutter blade
